Cash Workbook – A Practical User’s Guide for the Preparation and Implementation of Cash Projects

Since 1999, the Humanitarian Aid Department of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), a division of the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, has implemented a series of Cash Transfer Projects in different humanitarian contexts. Cash grants provided to more than 100,000 people in need have supported them in covering their most urgent needs.
The SDC Cash Workbook presented here is the result of experience and know-how gathered, accumulated, capitalised on and shared by the assessors, project managers, evaluators and desk officers involved. Its aim is to help improve and professionalize the planning and implementation of Cash Transfer Projects by providing tried-and-tested
experience.
